Landing page for Open-Source, No-code workflow application builder. Can you make an analogy?

Hello, fellow indie hackers. Today I finished working on a Landing page for the Ax workflow application builder.

www.ax-workflow.com

The Ax is software for rapid workflow automation and it is:

  • Open-source
  • No-code
  • Self-hosted
  • Can be installed with one command :  pip3 install ax
  • Is lightweight - 7MB
  • Have an application marketplace
  • Is mobile-friendly
  • Have a GraphQL API
  • and many more

I would really like to know if you understood what Ax is and how it can be used. 
If you did, I ask you to come up with an analogy to a product you know and write it in comments. Thank you!

My own analogies are:

  • The Ax is like Microsoft Sharepoint but Open Source, Installed with one command, - weights 7MB and has app Marketplace.
  • The Ax is like SalesForce but Open Source and Self-hosted.
  • The Ax is like Wordpress but for workflow automation.
  • The Ax is like Zoho Creator but Open Source and modern.
  • The Ax is a Kissflow on steroids but Self-hosted and Open Source

Any other suggestions, thoughts, and critics are very appreciated too!

By the way. I am looking for a Marketing/Sales partner in another indie-hackers topic. [I can't post multiple links because of the low repo]

    Frankly I didn't understand what your open-source code does. When I look at the video on the landing page, it seems that you are a form builder. And then when the form is submitted, you take some actions? So I am assuming that you have pre-existing integrations with marketing automation and CRM softwares already? Also I am not clear how will I integrate your code in my project if I am not a Python developer?

    It'll help if you answer the following questions:

    1. Who is your target audience?
    2. What is the primary problem your target audience is facing that you are trying to solve?
    3. What primary benefit will your target audience derive by using your solution?
